Optimism is NOT positivity. Had to get that out the way right away because I hear people groaning already, so stuff that thought. Optimistic thinking is really hard to do but it is so necessary in your life. Optimism is the undying belief that the future is bright. Times and life can have a million obstacles and be very rocky but you can come out i…

If you couldn't turn back and you could only move forward, mistakes and learning and successes and all, what would you do? What if there was no other option?

The big truth about simplicity, do it! That is all there is to know. MAKE YOUR LIFE AND YOUR DECISIONS S I M P L E!

One of the best ways to do more cool shit is to get better at trying a whole bunch of stuff. We can find ourselves stuff in a creative kind of prison as our life becomes a bit more routine and filled with habits. While habits and routines and rituals can be great, they can also slow us down and prevent us from trying new things. So how do we get ou…

In this episode I really want to break your habit of being comfortable.

No matter what in life, and maybe even moreso, in creativity we have to really understand that CHANGE is going to happen. Most times we don't like change, change is hard, change means that our habits, our rituals, our paths are about to get diverted. We must walk into the unknown. After many years of working and coaching and learning and leading I …

In this episode I wanted to really hit home that practicing in the light is ok. You know why? Because most people don't care.

Do the things that make you h…

I really felt like the 15 Minute Friday was a good start to the topic of, What gives you energy? What gets you out of bed in the morning? But I really think these questions, these topics, deserve so much more discussion. So much more time. So much more energy. If we nail the answers to these questions then I truly believe we are on a good path. My …

It is music? Is it art? Fresh air? Solitude? What is it that fills your cup? 1. This seems like a very simple question to answer, but really think about it, do you really know? 2.

One of the reasons we don't get on a roll doing more cool shit is our ability to get stuck in the negative. I think it is a profound and helpful skill to temper our minds, to train our brains to help us see the good, to find the light to move forward toward. It's not always easy to do this but is it ever an addition to ourselves and how we live whe…

Sometimes change is necessary for the betterment. The betterment of our minds, our physical health, our lives as a whole. We don't always know it or see it right at first but hopefully we have the chance, the time, the knowledge, good friends, or something wholly and wonderful thing or things in our life that helps us see that changes are necessary…

We get fed stories of overnight successes all the time but do I actually think there are that many actual overnight successes, no. I think there are very few overnight successes. I also believe that it is harmful to present these stories as overnight successes. It is harmful because it allows people to think that "it", whatever it is for each perso…

Almost no one out there has alllllll their shit together. Some are better at hiding it than others. Some are working really hard to cover it up. Some don't know they don't have it together. But it's true, imposter syndrome effects many many people, especially the creatives of this world. We can however, take comfort though in numbers. We can also t…

When you are trying to improve, when you are trying to move forward, when you are climbing there will always be people who say mean shit about you.

You…

It can be incredibly difficult to jump into anything new. But sometimes it's what is best and sometimes we have to trick ourselves into making that jump less scary.

Why would I ever choose to talk about this crazy deep topic in such a short time? Well because I'm a dork. Change is always inevitable but how and why do we choose to make those changes? Our brain has roughly 70,000 thoughts per day but many of those thoughts are the same day to day, experts have said 91% of our thoughts are the exact same. So what…
